Project Report

This is a Group project and this Project will sharpen student analytical skills through integrating their knowledge of the economic theory with decision making techniques. Students will learn to use economic models/theories to identify the relevant elements of a managerial problem, identify their relationships, and formulate them into a managerial model to which decision making tools can be applied.

This is designed to provide quite a bit of freedom in deciding the topic/theme of your work. Pick a topic which interests you but make sure it is a topic on which you are able to develop a good research/analysis based output. For better understanding of methodology to move ahead, you may like to take help of few Research papers for the purpose.
